Hi, I'm starting my trans.  Been to counselor in E. KY and got hormones from doc in Charleston, wv.   I live near Huntington and would like to find group or friends in Ashland-Huntington area.
Still look male, so don't be shocked.   Gonadal Dysgenisis, long medical history.

Welcome to Susan's Place. You might start with our links section (https://www.susans.org/links/) and see if there is anything you would consider close the other way to find something is google "city name LGBT" as that will often turn up a center near you. If you find a center, that may provide both social groups and local medical help that is transgender friendly.

It's not important what your current state of transition is here. We have children 12-13 years old that my not be permitted to transition for years and older adults still deciding to come out. I am on the other end and had my surgery in 1982. Everybody has to be somewhere and we will do our best to help you move along the path of self discovery.

We issue to all new members the following links so you will best be able to use the web site.

I know there were several groups in the Charleston area. Likely your only choice. I lived up north in WV near Cumberland, MD. It was about 100 miles or more to Pittsburgh and about the same to DC which were the only real cities nearby. After a lot of searching I did find a group in Western MD, only 90 miles away. One's choices are slim to none in the boonies.
